Sweetheart Snowflake

I couldn't wait to make Jon's new snowflake and here it is. I tatted it in Flora variegated green and a dusty blue. I just pressed it so it is darker than it will be dry. Oh, size 20. I thought these colors would look good on my Rainbow Christmas Tree.

I will tat the other pieces of the set in pink and green or pink and raspberry.

If you haven't ordered by patterns, I hope you will. They are so pretty.

Your tatting is always wonderful to see. I didn't realise it the first time, but I looked again and noticed the different alternating shade in the 4-rings grouping in the points of the snowflake. Did you plan it that way?

Thank you Tattrldy. I'm glad you like the colors. They are not my usual pairing, but I thought they would look nice.Thanks Valerie. It is easy to do a good job with Jon's patterns!Thank you Tatting Chic. It was fun to tat.Thanks Fox. I can't wait to tat the rest of the set.I knew you would like it, Diane. I was thinking of you when I picked out the colors!Thank you Chiara. Your enthusiasm is contagious!Thanks Jon. That is always good to hear from the designer. I can't take credit for the different colors ending up in the points. One can never tell what variegated thread will do, huh? If you eyes are playing a trick, mine are as well!Thank you Tatskool. Just jump right over to Jon's blog and order them. They are VERY reasonable and the PDF will be on it's way to you in no time. Oops, did you mean you have to have this PARTICULAR snowflake? LOLThank you Madeline. It's not purple and green, but it's pretty anyway.
